1. Create an account
Sign up at the dashboard and choose a plan. Starter begins with a 7-day trial covering 100 AI photo scans; Stripe collects payment details when you start the subscription, and billing begins after the trial unless you cancel. Standard, Pro and Shop bill from the day you subscribe.
2. Make a batch
A batch is one pile of cards — a box you opened, a collection you bought, a shipment you are preparing. Give it a name you will recognise later. You can set defaults on it (game, language, condition, finish) so every card you add inherits them instead of being set one at a time.
3. Add the cards
Three ways, and they mix freely inside one batch:
- Photograph the card. Listrune reads the name, set, number, language and finish off the photo and offers the matching printings. The photo is kept and becomes the listing image.
- Search by name in the language printed on the card — Glurak finds the German Charizard, not the English one.
- Set code and number, straight off the bottom of the card, when you know exactly which printing you have.
Every candidate comes back with its set, rarity and available finishes, so a Reverse Holo and a Holo Rare of the same card stay separate products — which matters, because they are priced separately and exported differently.
4. Read the price
Each card is priced the moment it is added, from Cardmarket in euros and — for Magic and Yu-Gi-Oh! — TCGplayer in dollars, then run through your pricing rule. Each row ends up in one of three states:
- Ready
- Priced and exportable.
- Review
- Priced, but something is worth a look — usually the ask sits above market because your cost floor pushed it there. It still exports.
- No price
- No quote was found for that printing. Set a price by hand or leave the card out.
Open a row to see exactly how the price was reached: the quote it anchored on, the multiplier, the condition factor, the floors and the rounding, each as its own line with its own number.
5. Adjust
Change condition, finish, quantity or your cost on any row and the price recalculates from the quotes already on file — no second lookup. Changing the finish is the exception: a reverse holo is its own product on Cardmarket, so the price is looked up again.
The pricing rule itself lives on its own screen: which market to anchor on, what to multiply by, what each condition is worth, the minimum margin over your cost, the absolute floor and how to round. Change it, reprice the batch, and watch every row move.
6. Get the cards out
Three routes, and you can use more than one:
- Publish to eBay from inside Listrune, once your eBay account is connected and your business policies are set.
- eBay File Exchange CSV — see the eBay guide.
- Cardmarket stock-import CSV — see the Cardmarket guide.
Rows that cannot be listed are held back with the reason rather than silently dropped. A card with no Cardmarket product id will not go into the Cardmarket file; a card priced under eBay's 1,00 € minimum will not go into the eBay one.
7. See what sold
On Standard or higher, connect your eBay account and Listrune reads your orders and marks the cards that sold, with what they went for. This is your own sales data, from your own account — Listrune has no market-wide eBay sold history, which requires a restricted eBay programme.
What counts against your monthly allowance
Your plan is measured in AI photo scans per month. Each photo sent to the AI scanner counts, including a retry or a photo it cannot identify. Searching for a card, adding it manually, pricing, repricing, editing, exporting and publishing do not use scans. The count resets at the start of each calendar month and does not roll over.
